Earlier this month I watched an episode of Top Chef, and chef Dawn made popcorn for a “Drive-In Movie Elimination Challenge,” and it made me CRAVE popcorn. And, let’s face it a lot people have been (and will be) scarfing down popcorn while they binge-watch their favourite shows during the latest lock-down. thought that we would share with you some tasty recipes to jazz up your viewing and popcorn eating experiences. I offer an adult version, a sweet treat and a kid friendly version. Enjoy!
